Blinds are now 25k/50k/5k, and we just saw the first flop of the final table, after roughly 15 minutes of play.
It was 0piggybank that raised it up to 100k from MP, before David Boyacyian called from the big blind.
Flop came 4:h 9:s 8:d, and Boyaciyan check-raised 0piggybanks c-bet of 100k up to 260k, and got called.
Turn K:d, and Boyaciyan this time made it 280k first in, and once again call from 0piggybank.
River 6:s, and both players checked.
Boyaciyan with 2:c 2:d, and 0piggybank taking down the pot with A:h 8:h.
0piggybank now up to 2,4 million in chips.
A few hands from the last 20 minutes:
First of all it was gabrielmoya who bet 125k when I catched the action on the flop 8:d 2:d Q:h from the CO, and 0piggybank called from the button.
Turn 9:c and gabrielmoya checked and snapfolded when 0piggybank slid out a 175k bet.
Shortly after they were batteling it out again. Moya raised to 80k, 0piggybank made it 160k and gabrielmoya came over the top all in. Snapfold from 0piggybank.
And the last hand I catched before walking back over to the media room was when I saw Mads Wissing bet 250k on the turn, when the board was T:c 2:h Q:c - Q:h, and got called by 0piggybank.
River 7:s and they both checked. Wissing showed missed flushdraw with A:h 9:h, while 0piggybank took down the pot with 6:c 6:s.
35 minutes to go of this level.
The chip counts are alredy in guys! So this is how the official final table will look tomorrow:
Seat 1 - Mads Wissing, Denmark, 420,000
Seat 2 - Guillem "gabrielmoya" Usero, Spain, 1,405,000
Seat 3 - Nicolas Levi, France, 5,690,000
Seat 4 - Martin "0piggybank" Finger, Germany, 5,800,000
Seat 5 - Andreas Wiese, Germany, 1,615,000
Seat 6 - Ari Engel, United States, 1,670,000
Seat 7 - Denys Drobyna, Ukraine, 1,180,000
Seat 8 - David Boyaciyan, Netherlands , 3,770,000
Certainly looks good for our PokerStrategist 0piggybanks!
Also, even if 16th place is too close to feel good at the moment, I would like to give a big congratulation to VojtaR for managing to secure a 16th place in the 722 man strong field, earning himself a nice €23,000!
It's been an action-packed final table so far with multiple all-ins from the shorter stacks.
They weren't afraid to do it light, either - Mads Wissing shoved his last chips in the middle with 4 :diamond:7 
but unfortunately ran into Guillem Usero's 8 :heart:8 
and despite turning a pair, was eliminated in eighth place. He takes home €66,700.
Andreas Wiese lasted a little longer, even doubling up before getting his last chips in with pocket fives and lost a semi-flip versus A 
3 to go home in 7th place, albiet €90,000 richer.
Approximate chip counts:
David Boyaciyan: 7.8m
Martin "
0piggybank" Finger: 7.25m
Guillem Usero "gabrielmoya" Cavaller: 2.14m
Ari Engel: 1.7m
Nicolas Levi: 1.475m
Denys Drobyna: 1.325m
Blinds are 30k/60k with a 5k ante.
As you can see, Boyaciyan and Finger have all the chips.
Denys Drobnya has been eliminated in fifth place.
He moved all in under the gun with A 7 :club and ran into the A K of David Boyaciyan in the big blind.
The chip leader held with no sweat as the board ran out K 
5 9 J to leave Drobnya drawing dead by the turn.
Denys Drobnya wins €160,000 for his efforts as David Boyaciyan extends his chip lead.
Martin "0piggybank" Finger has taken the chip lead after clashing with fellow big stack David Boyaciyan and is closing in on the 10m mark.
He opened the small blind for 160k and BB Boyaciyan called to bring a flop of J Q 6
Finger bet 160k and was quickly called before check-calling a bet of 280k on the T turn. On the K river Finger bet out 300k and was called, showing K-J for the win.
Martin Finger is now up to 9.825m
Guillam " "gabrielmoya" has been eliminated in fourth place just before the break.
If it's any consolation, his chips went to fellow Black Member Martin Finger, who called his pre-flop all-in holding kings. gabrielmoya could only muster A 8
The flop gave us quite the sweat, with the J-4-2 all coming up hearts and giving gabrielmoya eight additional outs, discounting the K in Finger's hand.
The turn was the 8 :club:; the river the wrong shade of red with the T and gabrielmoya leaves us in 4th with €205,000.
Congratulations to gabrielmoya
Chip counts at the start of Level 30 (50k/100k w/10k ante)
1. Martin "0piggybank" Finger - 13,460,000
2. David Boyaciyan - 6,530,000
3. Nicolas Levi - 1,555,000
Nicolas Levi is gone in 3rd place.
He moved in from the button for around 1.5m and Finger snapped him off.
Our Black member was in pole position with A-J versus 8-6. The flop came 8-4-3, all clubs, which gave Finger the nut flush draw and kept him well alive despite pairing Levi. The ace on the turn smacked "0piggybank" and he held on the river.
A deal was made heads-up with Finger holding 15.25m in chips to Boyaciyan's 6.41m. Our man will be leaving the EPT Prague with at least €620,000 and has a great chance to take home the trophy and an additional €100,000
Martin Finger has just won a big pot to take a 6:1 chip lead.
He raised and called a 3-bet that put 1m in the pot before the flop, which came down T 7 2 :spades: and saw Boyaciyan c-bet 450k.
Finger called and then made his own bet of 1.05m on the Q turn when Boyaciyan checked. He called before check-calling a 2m bet on the 6 river. Finger showed A-Q and that was good enough to take the pot.
Martin Finger - 18.35m
David Boyaciyan - 3.31m
